A few of these players have had some decent upgrades compared to their FC 24 ratings, with Jude Bellingham receiving a pretty sizeable boost from his 86 rating in last year’s game, while Rodri went from 89 to 91 and Martin Odegaard received a boost from 87 to 89. Mbappe retains his spot at the top, and is one of the best dribblers in the game to boot.

Being one of the best players in the game doesn’t give you everything, however. Many of the best free-kick takers in FC 25 fall well outside the top 10, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t deadly from set pieces, so make sure you’re keeping some balance in your team.
